A Century's Growth.

A hundred years are gone since Washington
promulgated the American Constitution, and
the question arises, by what standards shall its
time when the population of the country was
less than 100000. and thirteen States consti-
tuted the Republic. 1t may be we'll for the
the growth Of population, unprecedented in the
history of nations:

TUITION. surged In and around
the square, with bow he turn ID and facing
the President, and within hearing OF all who
occupied seats around ths circle, offered q
prayer TO the Almighty.
He was listened to with tho closest possible
attention and upon the conclusion of the prayer
the sweet strains of the patriotic Star
Spangled Banner" broke upon the crowd in
volumes frCm the voices of the grand chorus,
accompanied by the Marine Band.
An impressive benediction was then pro-
nounced by Rev. Jere Witherspoon, of Nash
Vile, Tenn. Just as he finished the benediction
the leader of the Marine Band sgnaled his nu-
scans TO render q march specially prepared
for the occasion. AS the band struck up, the
President and Mrs Cleveland walked arm in
arm to the front Of the stand and bowed repeat
edly TO the multitude in acknowledgment of the
thunders of applause that greeted them. When
the occupants OF the stand noticed the pair
standing a wild rush was made over the chairs
to the place where they stood and the President
held short reception, shaking hands with all
who succeeded in reaching him. The police
soon cleared a passage, and in few minutes
the President and wife were in carriage. They
sat on the back seat Of q handsome barouche,
the President with uncovered head and both
smiling. They we're repeatedly cheered by the
throng, and they were given a continuous ova~
tion from tho time they left the stand until they
disappeared within their hotel.

cite but one more example out of hun
dreds of thousands.
The announcement by Everett Travis
to his parents of his clandestine mar
riage with Julia Carter, one OF the fac
tory CIR s, was the cause of such an
explosion of paternal wrath as does
often really occur, outside the pages of
romance.
The senior Travis glared on his son
in the most highly approved style of
sensational fiction.
"What Married, do you say, and
to one of those cotton-spinners? Well,
by -, sir, we'll make short work of
this foolishnessl Find how much she
wants, and YOU can pay her off; then
go out West and get divorce. And
let this be the last of your wild oats,
sirl It's time you settled down and
began life sensibly and steadily"
"Sir, she's my lawful wife. She's
good enough for any man in the State.
l want to bring her here and have yo l
and mother receive her as a daughter.
I'm sure I'd be willing" put in Mrs.
Travis, with q thought of the far-oll
days when she used to do kitchen
work for wages. "And I'm sure she
must be good, and that we can love her
dearly. Let Everett bring her here,
father"
"Never, madaml Never, you unduti-
full son! We've made an idol of you
I've educated you carefully and expen-
sively; l've lavished money on you;
I've spoiled you, perhaps. Anything
reasonable I'll stand, but this is step
too far. Repudiate that creature, take
the means have suggested to get rid
of her, or 1 repudiate you forever.
Cho SO, now, between her and me,
with all that L have to give you"
There could be no doubt what The
choice would be at that time. In the
flush of young love, with temper law
fully inherited from this irate parent
and viewing the world through the
roseate glasses of twenty-four, Everett
Travis left his fathers house, content
to sacrifice his worldly prospects ant
advantages for the woman who was al
in all to h m.
He lost no time in attempts at recon
ciliation, but removed at once to {
fourishing Western city. Stories were
told, probably true ones, of stealthy
visit by Everett's mother before the re
moval; of her forgiveness and blessing

The Democratic party is an organi-

than many persons, including some
members of the party, seem to con-

without the opposition OF this great
party of the people. 1t is not perfect.

existence Of which had net even sus-

with clumpy Of cottonwood timber along
its banks, and in one OF the open spaces
was an Indian lodge. The Indians that
hunted in that country wero peaceable,
but the war was just over, and the
Sioux was feeling very sore. If they
were Crows or Arapahoes l might
get some information about my
horses. lay down and watched. No
smoke came from the tepec; no one
moved around it half a dozen ponies
grazed few hundred yards distant.
There was not even dog which looked
rather suspicious After waiting five
minutes | knew no more than at first.
suddenly three whitc-taicd deer came
from the timber and walked leisurcly
across the opening, Then l knew that
the camp was deserted, and the strange
ness Of 1t startled me. mounted and

the tepce. / threw back the n4p, and I
shall remember what | saw until death.
In the centre Of the tcpee was spread a
buffalo robe and on the robe were guns
and scaIps and many arrows; and
sitting cross-leggcd in circle
around tho robe were six braves Of
the Sioux Nation. All were in their
prime all deckcd out in war paint, and
each one held bow and arrow in his
hand. On every face was an expression
Of calm inditf renee, as of one who
neither suffers nor enjoys, neither hopes
nor fears The faces were those of
dead men, and smallpox had marked
them with its awful marx They took
their misery with their heals up and
